Hi, Is it crucial to use some form of gasket sealant when replacing a carb like for like or can it just be replaced and secured? Thanks

Hey guys. I'm a total newbie so please be gentle with me. I have managed to start my car up and what happened the other day was when i started it it was automatically on full throttle and the car was just going really fast. Lucky I put on some bricks but I had to pull the fuel line out rapid...

Hello All, I have a Shadow SB1 Buggy made by GS Racing and am not in possession of the original manual so if anyone has a similar buggy or knows the factory carburetor setting for the high, low and idle screw or knows what to do if you have to tune a buggy from scratch. Thank You Cyklon

What are they and what do they do? I know that they restrict the airflow into the carb, but isn't that the opposite of what you'd want? More air more power right?

Ok so the only way I can get my 3.3 to start and idle is for it to be at half throttle. I myself have been over it numerous times as well as the hobby shops, and can't figure it out. Brend new everything except piston and sleeve,because they were still in good repair,new carb,tank,lines. Lots of...

So about five or six years ago I got a Kyosho Inferno(Not sure which model, It's been so long) and along with it came some back-up parts. Now at the time when I received the car I knew very little about rc cars and because of this I only ran the car about twice and then kept it in a garage for...

Hi all. Got this SH .28 P6 from a deal but I need a carburetor. First of all, this engine seems mean on the papir with 3.8 BHP - can I trust this? I have already a GO .28 mounted and it has no rating of BHP. I do not know how to compare those engines. Back to the carburetor. Does all .28...

Hey guys I have got a XTM Terminator 24 engine. It's almost been a year since it was turned on. For the last couple of days I tried starting it up but its useless. Priming works, fuel goes through the pipe but it doesn't seem to go through the engine. Now i gave up. Please could you give me a...

So I stripped the fuel inlet on my carb on a trx 3.3 for a tmaxx classic. I know I can get the carb body at my lhs for $16 since the components are still good. My question is is it worth it to just get a diff carb altogether or.just stick with stock? I've heard of traxxas carbs having vapor lock...

I am beginning to suspect that I have damaged my carburetor in my Stampede. One day while making adjustments to the carburetor I think I might have turned the LSN too far clockwise. I have no fuel (coming in the mail!) so I can't try anything right now but yesterday I went to put the carb back to...

What is the physical and performance differences between a slide carb and rotary carb? Also are there any other styles of carb? ---------- Post added at 4:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 4:40 PM ---------- ok no worries i have found the other post about this

I have taken my TRX 3.3 engine apart in order to clean it. After having it put together I did a test to detect air leak using a soapy solution. Unfortunately, the front bearing has a leak, but I've also discovered a leak at the carburetor slide and the dust boot, as bubbles formed between the...

Hi, I am in the process of sealing my engine and I am unable to get my carburetor back on. I don't think it's being held up by the locking pin but I guess I'm not sure. Should it take a lot of force to push it back on? It seems like its getting hung up before even reaching the locking pin. I've...
